Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
बिळवंत कर्म । करी आपुला तो धर्म ॥1॥
पुढें घालुनियां सत्ता । न्यावें पतना पतिता ॥ध्रु.॥
आचरणें खोटीं । केलीं सलताती पोटीं ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे देवा । नाहीं भजन केली सेवा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
One's powerful karma enforces its own law. It seizes authority and drags the fallen further into ruin. Wrong actions, once committed, burn in the belly with regret. Says Tuka, without worship and service of God, there is no escape.
